That news and 50¢ will get you a cup of coffee.....

This man has eluded death or capture for a long time.... why should we believe that the fate of this one man is salvation for many. Are we that blind to the recent polls conducted by Maryland University. The folks over there just plain don't want us over there, OBL or no OBL......

OBL has huge aspirations towards ruining our economy and killing innocent people in USA. He is an inspiration to those who want to follow through on these goals of his. Put THAT in your SUV!

Some may disagree, but to me, it's very important that he go away. Dying of a water-borne disease would be a perfect end since his current choice of rugged outdoor living is what he wishes to bring about for the rest of us.

Well, according to Hamid Mir, UBL is planning some big things. His right-hand man has a new tape coming out with the same old propaganda according to the terrorist web sites.

Run!

I can't believe that this guy has not been caught yet. Bill Clinton had 8 years to catch him. Didn't do it. George Bush had 6 years to catch him. Didn't do it. I'm starting to think that our government doesn't want to catch Osama.

Like John Maynard Keynes once said, "in the long run we will all be dead." In the case of our epoch, perhaps Bin Laden is uncatchable, but sooner or later, typhoid, cancer, a stroke, a heart attack or old age will finally bring him down.
Hey, we had our chance to bring him down on many occasions, but the US government was always afraid to pull the trigger for fear of coming across like the antogonist or nemesis of the story. Look what happen in the Taliban funeral, where a drone and its missile could have put scores of taliban out. Oh, but there were possibly children and woman around, and we have a certain war ettiquete that we must adhere to. Hey this is war; this is war, and 'all is fair in love and war.' As long as we -- the US government and company -- are not willing to pull the trigger, regardless of the costs and consequences, we have no business attempting to free a nation, capture a terrorist thug, or pursue a foreign policy of imperialism.

u cant catch a dead man LOL

How did a member of the Taliban in Afghanistan get hold of the phone number of an ABC news producer? Afghan 411 must be REALLY good!

Ok folks, has anyone stopped to wonder how a member of the Taliban was able to get the phone number for and ABC producer?

Sounds like more propaganda to me. The kind of thing folks might do in a lead up to an election,eh?

He was a CIA asset and died in December of 2001. Can you say "Emanual Goldstein"? I knew you could, I like the way you say that. Wake up America get up to speed with the rest of the world.

OBL has most likely been dead for quite some time now.
He's just dragged out whenever the administration needs to scare up the public.
The NY Times reported his death in 2001. The BBC reported it in 2002.
CNN reported it in 2002.
Al-Jazeera reported it as well.
Look it up.
Did everyone just forget?
Or did they just choose to ignore it- just like everyone ignores the simple fact of who is -really- behind al-Quaeda.
Who pays the al-Quaeda? The ISI.
Look it up.
Who, by their own admission, pays and trains the ISI?
The Central Intelligence Agency of the good ol' US of A.
Look it up.
Think about it.

Cui bono?

Capturing and excuting Bin Laden for his crimes against humanity is not the real issue,the real issue is how to prevent extrimism.i believe the way to do so is not to allow radical moslem clerics and preachers misuse the freedom of speech in western world to creat terrorists and expand extreemism.

You don't want to go there Miri.
Radical Islamic extremism is all based on brain washing people from a very young age anyway and would never fly over here. Who cares if OBL is caught or not anyway. What's the difference between an 8x10 cell and a cave - he is by no means a free man. And I'm convinced that if he is still alive he'll eventually be caught in some hole in the ground just like Saddam. In the mean time we'll just keep picking off his fighters one by one. They want to die and go to paradise and we want to do all we can to help them achieve that. I'm just starting to wonder where it will stop and how will we ever get out of this mess. It's fine to be on the offensive in this conflict but what are the objectives?

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves for reporting this non-sense. Nobody is buying this non-sense that is purposely being waved around in the wake of the November elections. Osama Bin Laden is dead (died of kidney ailment) and Al Qaeda is just a group cooked up by the government to scare the bejesus out of us. You have a responsibility to give the American people news that has truth to us and by continuing to lie for the government, you are just as traitorous as the government that you serve. Your ratings will soon take a major plunge because people like myself get the real news from the blogs, because they're the only ones with the guts to tell the truth.

Osama bin Laden is dead. He is now relegated to being a sock puppet for Bush and his gang to trot out everytime he and his criminal gang are in political trouble or there is an election. Remember the phony bin Laden tape that appeared RIGHT before the election in 2004? Gee, golly me! What a wink-a-dink of a coincidence! Maybe bin Laden works for Karl Rove.

The best proof he can offer is "hinted that there is a possibility of a tape being sent to media organizations" .... HINTED That there is a POSSIBILTY!? What kind of proof is that? How many Osama video's were proven fake now? Pretty convincing evidence he's dead IMO.

"the real issue is how to prevent extrimism.i believe the way to do so is not to allow radical moslem clerics and preachers misuse the freedom of speech in western world to creat terrorists and expand extreemism."

Uh.... sorry, but the US government are the extremists. You are either ignorant or deluded and in either case I pity you.

Why wasn't this phone call traced?
Why wasn't this man captured, waterboarded, and fored to give Osama's location?

We are all on to the scam, ABC!

911 was anside job, to usher in a global fascist dictatorship, and a micro chipped population.

Thank's mainstream media!

To quote the site from where I learned of this:

How did a member of the Taliban in Afghanistan get hold of the phone number of an ABC news producer? Afghan 411 must be REALLY good!

The Taliban calls ABC news from halfway across the world(how did they get their number?)to tell them OBL is still alive. Who benifits from this transparent fable and could their timing be any more perfect with elections coming in November. OBL was a CIA asset and still is to this day if he's still alive anyway (egotists don't make audiotapes after "confessing" to terrorism).

This from the station that brought you "Path to 911". Yeah sure guys. I don't think there's anyone much left in the US media that actually can tell what truth is anymore.
